The lectures were fascinating and I thoroughly enjoyed meeting, and talking to, so many like minded hobbyists. Thank you to Steve Waldron and Darcy Barry for driving me to Balboa Park on Saturday and of course to long-time friend Steve Sotelo for rides, food, and generally keeping me entertained outside of the conference. The fried pickles and beignets at Craft and Commerce were truly phenomenal.
